gin

/ˈʝin/ · B2 · noun · m

gin

🍸 Spanish gin is said like English 'heen' with a buzzy y: HEEN, not jin

Say it like English 'in' with a soft, buzzy y sound at the start (as in 'yes', but stronger). The word is spelled the same as English gin and names the same juniper-flavored spirit, so only the pronunciation is new.
